62nd Annual Report 2013-14
Chairman's Message
Dear Shareholders,
It is a matter of immense pleasure and pride to present the 62nd Annual Report for the year 2013-14.
This is the year in which HPCL completes 40 years since formation in 1974 - a key historical milestone. It is only befitting, then,
that we achieved the highest net profit level in the last decade in the year 2013-14. It is also very satisfying to report that HPCL
clocked the highest growth in market sales amongst Public Sector Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs). When one considers this
performance in the backdrop of a slowing economy, stagnant petroleum demand and a volatile exchange rate, the performance
seems even more remarkable.
Each of our business units worked in tandem and continued to deliver superior performance. We also obtained an MOU score
of 1.034 for 2012-13, which is the best score amongst all the PSUs under the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas (MOP&NG)
for the second consecutive year.
The Indian economy recovered marginally from the decade low GDP growth recorded in the last fiscal, even though it was less
than 5% for the second consecutive year. This indicated a slowdown, for the first time in nearly 25 years. The average oil price in
2013-14 was around US $ 106 per barrel, slightly lower than the 2012-13 average of US $ 108 per barrel. However, benchmark
prices were higher when denominated in rupee terms due to depreciation of rupee. The Rupee depreciated significantly against
US $ from ` 54 per dollar at end of March 2013 to about ` 69 per dollar in August 2013 and hovered around ` 62 per dollar during
October 2013 to February 2014. By end-March 2014, it was at ` 61 per dollar.
Sluggish economic activity, combined with sector-specific factors led to a nominal increase, in the consumption of petroleum
products in 2013-14, by a mere 1.3% to 160 million metric tonnes (MMT), from 157 MMT in 2012-13. On a positive note, underrecoveries of OMCs declined in 2013-14, as they were authorised, in January 2013, to increase diesel prices in regular increments.
HPCL recorded a stellar performance in 2013-14. Our Gross Sales increased by 7.7% to reach ` 2,32,188 crore while Profit after
Tax almost doubled to ` 1,734 crore from ` 905 crore in 2012-13. Our refineries processed 15.51 MMT of crude, achieving 105%
capacity utilisation. Refining margins improved to US $ 3.43 per barrel, against US $ 2.08 per barrel in 2012-13, while combined
distillate yield was 74.2% in 2013-14.
During the year, our refineries initiated various measures to improve margins by improving distillate yields and energy efficiency
index. A number of critical projects were completed during the year including, Diesel Hydro Treater (DHT) plants at Mumbai and
Visakhapatnam refineries to meet the requirements of Euro IV HSD in the country, Revamp of Propane De-asphalting unit (PDA)
at Mumbai refinery, Flue Gas Desulphurisation unit (FGD) II and augmentation of Propylene capacity at Visakhapatnam refinery.
HPCL is also developing a green R&D Centre in Bengaluru which will focus on developing competitive, energy-efficient and ecofriendly technologies.
HPCL continued the tradition of registering excellent sales performance. In 2013-14, we achieved total sales of 31.0 MMT, with an
all-time high domestic sales of 30.27 MMT; thereby recording a 4.1% increase over 2012-13, which is the highest growth amongst
the Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs).We registered a market share gain in Retail sales of motor fuels thereby achieving a stellar
performance of increasing market share sequentially over the last decade. We have also recorded Bitumen sales of 1 million
tonnes for the second consecutive year and launched new VG 40 Bitumen Grade for the first time in the Industry. We achieved a
significant milestone by becoming Indias largest lube marketer with total Lube sales of 484 TMT in 2013-14.
Another significant aspect during the year has been the robust throughput of 9.3 million tonnes from our Joint Venture refinery,
HMEL at Bathinda. This has enabled the corporation to consolidate its market share in the high growth region of Northern India.
Your Corporation has developed world class in-house capabilities in design, construction and operation of cross-country product
pipelines, as part of its strategy for leveraging this least-cost transportation mode. This strategy has paid rich dividends during
2013-14, with a record throughput of 15.69 MMT in pipelines. We have also registered significant progress on three new pipeline
projects under implementation viz. Rewari-Kanpur Pipeline and AwaSalawas Pipeline for white oils and MangaloreHassanBangalore LPG Pipeline.
To strengthen primary distribution and logistics, HPCL commissioned a White Oil Terminal at Ennore in Tamil Nadu with a tankage
of 115 TKL, 42 Tank truck-loading bays and two rail-loading facilities. LPG infrastructure was strengthened by the commissioning
of LPG bottling plant at Anantapur in Andhra Pradesh with bottling capacity of 60 TMT and enhancement of bottling capacities
at Mysore and Hazarwadi LPG plants.
Chairman's Message
Ensuring safe operations at all our locations continues to be a key focus area. It is a matter of satisfaction for us that we
achieved zero lost time accidents at our POL and LPG installations. Our commitment to Safety continues to be strengthened
with intensification of efforts to implement best in class systems and regular training of our personnel. We are committed to
sustainable development and various projects are currently underway towards reduction in carbon footprint and conservation
of energy.
Your Corporation is continually working to be a model of excellence in meeting the commitment to our society and has undertaken
projects with focus on Child-Care, Education, Health Care, Skill Development and Community Development in partnership with
specialized NGOs/Implementation partners.
While uncertainties surrounding the administered fuel pricing policy remain, and are likely to impact our performance, we have
maintained our strategy of investing in new infrastructure in our core areas of Refining and Marketing. We also plan to expand in
new areas such as Natural gas and move up the value chain, as energy needs of the country expand with the growing economy.
To tap future opportunities, we have entered into a Joint Venture agreement with Government of Rajasthan for a 9 MMTPA
refinery-cum-petrochemical complex at Barmer. We have also initiated activities for setting up a 5 MMTPA LNG terminal at
Chhara, in Gujarat, through a JV partnership with M/s S. P. Ports Pvt. Ltd. Further, we are participating in two separate Joint
Venture companies viz. GSPL India Gasnet Limited (GIGL) and GSPL India Transco Limited (GITL) with equity stakes from GSPL
(52%), IOCL (26%), HPCL (11%) and BPCL (11%) for laying, building and operating three natural gas pipelines. We have also
commissioned wind energy farms with a generation capacity of 50.5 MW and plan to expand the capacity by an additional 50
MW.
In the area of exploration and production (E&P), we acquired a stake in two natural gas blocks in Australia through the whollyowned subsidiary M/s Prize Petroleum Company Ltd. One of the fields is a producing one, the other is a discovered field and
yet to be developed. This is a significant step in our effort to move up the value chain with a focus on developing capabilities and
improving cash flows.
Modest recovery is expected in 2014-15 as GDP growth is forecast to be at around 5.5% due to part resolution of stalled projects
and improved business and consumer confidence. The narrowing of the current account deficit (CAD) and fiscal deficit has
reduced the risk of stress in the Indian economy. Increased forex reserves in the second half of 2013-14 helped the nation ride
out the volatility in the currency markets in the beginning of 2014, relatively smoothly. Headline inflation is trending down while
CPI inflation, in the recent past, has tended to be high due to volatile food prices. Any adverse outcome of the monsoon will,
therefore, increase inflationary pressures. Rising US oil supply and slowing emerging market growth predict a slightly declining
to flat oil prices this year. However, outages due to geopolitical risks could conversely, lead to volatility and spike in oil prices.
To insulate ourselves against external volatilities and uncertainty, we continue to focus on process improvements. We are
implementing two major projects, viz., Central Procurement and Integrated Margin Management for increasing competitiveness
and delivering superior value to the customers and stakeholders. An Innovation Council comprising of all the Business Heads
has been formed to design strategies for leveraging Innovation. Several projects with involvement of workmen are under
implementation to achieve operational efficiencies in Marketing Division.
People are the main stay of your organization and are core to achieving excellence in performance. HPCL is proud of its
committed, motivated and hard-working team of employees. Our focus is on capability building, empowerment,alignment of
employees to a common vision and creating an effective pipeline of leaders for the future. As we prepare for the challenges
ahead, it is our endeavor to ensure that there is a seamless transition to the next generation of leaders, who can take the
company to greater heights.
The Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas, Government of India, other Ministries / Departments of the Government of India,
and various State Governments have guided and supported us in all our efforts. Our customers, business associates and
shareholders have always been a source of strength and I thank them for their support.
We believe we can leverage the diverse skills, strengths and abilities of all our employees and stakeholders and prepare HPCL
for the future by working Together towards Tomorrow.
We look forward to your continued support in all our endeavours.
Thank you,
Nishi Vasudeva

Particulars with respect to Conservation of Energy, Technology Absorption and Foreign Exchange Earning/Outgo as per
Companies (Disclosure of Particulars in the Report of Board of Directors) Rules, 1988.
ENERGY CONSERVATION & TECHNOLOGY ABSORPTION
I)
CONSERVATION OF ENERGY
a)
Energy Conservation measures

HPCL refineries are committed towards conservation of energy and minimization of losses. In this endeavour, the
refineries have taken part in the benchmarking studies organized by CHT in collaboration with M/s Solomon Associates,
USA. The outcome of this study brought into light, the refineries performance in comparison to other refineries
worldwide bearing similar configuration. The potential areas for improvement were identified and several measures
were developed to implement the same under long term and short term strategies. Implementation of some of these
measures has made it possible to restrict fuel and loss for Mumbai and Visakh refineries to 6.9% and 7.6% respectively
in the FY 2013-14.
The energy conservation measures undertaken by both refineries during the year 2013-14 have resulted in a savings of
25,535 SRFT/year (standard refinery fuel tonnage per year). This translates to savings of ` 106 crores/ year approximately.
The major energy conservation measures undertaken during 2013-14 are as follows:
Mumbai Refinery
1.
In an effort to minimize fuel requirement, refinery has organized Energy Management study in crude distillation
units, NSU & Prime G by M/s Energy Consultants. This initiative has resulted in significant fuel savings.
2.
Installation of additional Convection rows in FR furnace had resulting in improved furnace efficiencies and fuel
savings.
3.
Optimization of steam consumption in units viz. DHDS/ISOM and FR and modification of SG 10 super heater has
resulted in lower steam consumptions.
4.
Replacement of Evaporator module for HRSG V has resulted in improved furnace efficiencies.
5.
Replacement of catalyst in DUU has resulted in lower fuel gas requirements.
6.
Periodic safety valves surveys were carried out with ultrasonic leak detector throughout the year resulting in
potential hydrocarbon loss reduction.
7.
Steam leak survey periodically carried out and replaced 961 Nos Steam traps all over the refinery.
Visakh Refinery
1.
Installation of Magnetic Resonators on GTG-3 and GTG-6 has resulted in lower specific fuel consumption.
2.
Achieved zero steam leak in Process Block (CDU-I, CDU-II, CDU-III, VBU, FCCU-I & FCCU-II) and P&U Block. With
this total steam leak reduced to 1500 kg/hr.
3.
FCCU-I condensate recovery system for recovery of condensate from steam tracing trap outlets & flash steam
recovery using thermo-compressor was commissioned.
4.
Implemented Air fuel ratio control system in CDU-III Atmospheric Furnace.
5.
Antifoulant injection was carried out at SR side of crude/SR preheat exchangers, thus enabling reduced fouling of
exchangers and hence resulting in energy savings.
6.
PFD PCV at CDU-II is replaced with higher capacity control valve and vaporization increased, thereby reducing
heater load.
7.
FCCU-I condensate recovery system for recovery of condensate from steam tracing trap outlets & flash steam
recovery using thermo-compressor was commissioned in April 2013.
25

8.
Operating severity increased in both FCCUs. Catalyst circulation rate maximized. Correspondingly, heater load
minimized in FCCU-I from 6.5 to 3 MMKcal/hr and in FCCU-II from 5 to 2.5 MMKcal/hr.
9.
Identified fouled preheat exchangers in CDUs basis software and cleaning was carried out for sustaining preheat
temperature.
10. Online chemical cleaning of CDUs & DHDS furnaces was carried out, which resulted in reduced stack temperatures
and increased heater efficiencies. This has resulted in potential savings in fuel consumption.
11. Achieved lowest ever SFC of 0.345 MT/MWH with respect to GTG operation, which is lower than previous year SFC
of 0.352 MT/MWH by 2%.
Oil and Gas Conservation Fortnight was observed both at Mumbai and Visakh refineries from 15th
31st January, 2014 to create awareness among the public for conservation of petroleum products.

Impact of above on energy conservation measures and consequent impact on cost of production of goods
Mumbai Refinery
The above energy conservation measures undertaken during the year 2013-14 have resulted in a savings of 13,449
SRFT/year (standard refinery fuel tonnage per year). This translates to savings of ` 54 crores/year approximately.
The major measures considered for implementation in the future are additional convection rows in FR furnace, increase
steam generation, Hot HVGO routing as feed in NFCCU, Steam trap management for refinery etc.
Visakh Refinery
The above energy conservation measures undertaken during the year 2013-14 have resulted in a savings of 12,086
SRFT/year (standard refinery fuel tonnage per year). This translates to savings of ` 52 crores/year approximately.
The major measures considered in coming years are implementation of air-fuel controls in CDUs, hot feed maximization
to FCCUs, Oil recovery due to insitu processing of sludge, Continuous use of IBH boilers in place of less efficient WIL-8
& BHPV boilers etc.

Management Discussion & Analysis Report: 2013-14

DEVELOPMENTS IN THE ECONOMY AND THE OIL SECTOR
Indian economy fared marginally better in 2013-14. The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) increased by 4.7% in 2013-14 compared
to 4.5% in 2012-13. As against 1.4% in 2012-13, agriculture sector growth in 2013-14 was very good at 4.7%. Industrial growth
remained stagnant. For the second consecutive year, GDP growth in the industry sector was less than 1%. Manufacturing and
mining GDP respectively declined by 0.7% and 1.4%. Services sector growth in 2013-14 was 6.8%, marginally less than last
years growth of 7%. The growth in GDP for the trade, hotels and transport and communication sectors during 2013-14 was 3%
as against 5.1% in the previous year. As compared to 2012-13, growth in other services sector was better in 2013-14.
At around United States Dollar (US$) 107 per barrel, average crude price in 2013-14 was slightly lower than 2012-13 average of
US$ 110 per barrel. However, benchmark prices were higher when denominated in Indian Rupee due to depreciation of rupee.
With the United States (US) Fed signaling tapering of Quantitative Easing (QE) in May 2013, money rushed out of emerging
economies, including India. Capital outflows amid a large Current Account Deficit (CAD) caused rupee to depreciate sharply
against US dollar, from 55 per US$ on May 22, 2013 to 68 per US$ on August 28, 2013. A slew of measures by Reserve Bank
of India (RBI) with respect to the policy rate, liquidity and forex swap facilities helped build up reserves during September to
November 2013. Depreciation of rupee helped exports while moderation of imports lowered trade deficit. Indias trade deficit at
US$ 147.6 billion during 2013-14 was about 25% lower than that of US$ 195.7 billion during 2012-13. CAD to GDP ratio, which
had reached 4.8% in 2012-13, narrowed to 1.7% in 2013-14. With revival of capital flows and lower CAD, concerns about the
financing of CAD eased during second half of 2013-14. The Rupee stabilized and moved in a narrow range of 60-63 per US$
between November 2013 and March 2014.
In January 2013, Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) were authorized to increase diesel prices in small increments at regular
intervals. Periodic increase in fuel prices did lead to some decline in under-recoveries of OMCs. Under-recoveries on diesel
sales at ` 62,837 crore were lower in 2013-14 compared to ` 92,061 crore in 2012-13. Under-recoveries on Superior Kerosene
Oil (SKO) and Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) sales in 2013-14 were higher than that of 2012-13. As against ` 1, 61,029 crore
under-recoveries incurred by OMCs in 2012-13, total under-recoveries on sales of diesel, kerosene and LPG in 2013-14 were
` 1, 39,869 crore.
Sluggish economic activity coupled with sector specific factors led to only a marginal increase in the consumption of petroleum
products in 2013-14. Total petroleum product consumption was about 160 million metric tonnes (MMT) in 2013-14 compared to
157 MMT in 2012-13. Major increase was in the consumption of petrol, LPG and petcoke. Petrol consumption increased by about
1.4 MMT in 2013-14, recording an increase of about 9% over 2012-13 level. Year-on-Year (y-o-y) growth in LPG consumption
was about 5% in 2013-14 translating into incremental volume of 0.7 MMT. With y-o-y growth of 15%, incremental consumption
of petcoke in 2013-14 was about 1.5 MMT. Increase in consumption of these products was offset by decline in consumption
of fuel oil, naphtha and diesel. Fuel oil consumption declined by about 1.5 MMT in 2013-14, a y-o-y fall of about 19%. Naphtha
consumption fell by about 0.8 MMT, declining by about 7% over 2012-13 level. Switchover to natural gas by major consumers
accounts for most of the decline in consumption of both products. Diesel consumption declined for the first time since 2001-02
and recorded a drop of 0.7 MMT with y-o-y fall of 1%.

REFINERIES
Global Scenario
World GDP grew by 2.9% in 2013 led by growth in Asia Pacific region & US. 2013-14 saw a major shift in oil market due to
continued refinery closures in western hemisphere and refining capacity addition in eastern half. On demand side, World added
about 660 thousand barrels per day (Kbd) refining capacity led by Saudi Arabia, which put downward pressure on Asian refining
margins. On supply side, 2013-14 was worst hit year by supply disruptions from Iran, Libya & Nigeria.
Year 2013-14 also witnessed the highest ever production of tight oil (shale) in the US which reduced its dependency on West
African crude. This contributed in pressurizing Brent and diverting oil flows to Asia especially to India.
As per Energy Information Administration (EIA), first quarter (Q1) of 2013-14 witnessed very high US Crude inventory of 392
Million barrels, an all-time high, which exerted downward pressure on crude. Brent averaged $102.43/bbl in first quarter of 201314, representing a sharp decline of $10.14/bbl from the previous quarter. This sharp decline was also caused partially due to
40

seasonal weak demand and by the persistently weak economic outlook in Europe, as well as poor economic growth. Increased
supplies of light crudes in Europe weighed on Brent while stronger demand for heavier Mideast crudes stemmed the decline in
Dubai prices resulting in very narrow Brent Dubai differential of $ 1.64/bbl.
Crude oil markets rallied across the board in July 2013, propelled by increased refinery runs in the US, Europe, Asia and the
Middle East and supply outages in Libya, Iraq and Yemen. Brent regained strength in Q2 of FY 2013-14 and averaged $ 110.29/
bbl posting an increase of $ 7.86/bbl. Brent was supported by reduced crude supplies heading to the Mediterranean in the wake
of sharply lower exports of Libyan crude due to a strike related shutdown of shipping terminals and a shift in Russian crude
exports to Asian markets.
Oil market escalated in tandem with rising geopolitical tensions over Syrias suspected use of chemical weapons on civilians at
end of August 2013. Markets were further supported by the near total outage of Libyan crude oil production by striking industry
workers, facility guards and warring militias. Crude oil prices for benchmark crudes trended lower throughout September as
tensions eased over the standoff with Syria, Dubai and Brent posting a marginal month on month average increase. The Brent
premium over Dubai widened again due to the relative strength of low sulphur crudes in European markets.
Quarter 3 of FY 2013-14 began on positive note as risk of confrontation in Iran has eased following discussions in Geneva between
the 5 permanent members of United Nations (UN) Security Council & Germany and Tehran over the latters nuclear programme.
Brent was down a more modest $2.75/bbl in October, to $109/bbl, with a 2013 peak in North Sea output and poor refining
margins partially offset by the loss of Libyan supplies.
The weaker market for Brent continued into November 2013 with the Month1 (M1), Month2 (M2) spread moving into contango.
By contrast, stronger demand for heavier Mideast crudes provided spot Dubai crude with some support. Dubai prices were off
by a relatively small $1.65/bbl in October, to an average $106.60/bbl. As a result, the Brent Dubai spread narrowed to an average
around $3.6/bbl in September and $2.4/bbl in October. The narrowing Brent Dubai spread led to an increase in arbitrage flows,
with Asian refiners scouting out North Sea and West African crudes pegged to Brent prices. In Europe, the near total absence of
Libyan crude supplies due to the continued shutdown of shipping terminals supported Brent prices in December 2013.
Total global oil demand rose by an estimated 1.2 million barrels per day (mbpd) in 2013. This is due to much stronger than
expected oil use in the US and smaller increases in Western Europe in last quarter of 2013, despite significant downward demand
estimates for China and Japan in the same quarter. Spot crude oil prices weakened in January 2014 month on month (m-o-m)
by $2.65/bbl to $108.17/bbl for North Sea Dated. Mideast Dubai, a heavier crude grade than Brent, declined by a steeper $3.88/
bbl to an average $104.02/bbl for January. Expectations of weaker demand heading into the spring refinery turnaround season,
added downward pressure on prices, with global refinery throughputs forecast to plummet by 2.5 million bpd. Crude Oil market
ended year with slightly low m-o-m with seasonally weaker demand and scheduled maintenance in the Atlantic basin and Asia
curbing refining runs in all major markets.
Weakness in crude market got reflected in product market as well. Singapore cracking margin for Q1 got settled at $ 6.65/bbl
dropped by $ 2.05 /bbl as compared to previous quarter. Refined product crack spreads largely declined in July on the back of
stronger benchmarks crudes and rising product inventories. Asian Fuel Oil crack dropped sharply in Q2 due to falling bunker
demand and monsoon season. Gasoline also showed weakness along with decline in Fuel Oil crack, which impacted refinery
margins adversely. Spot product crack spreads posted diverging trends in August, with the US partially insulated from the
surge in crude prices on account of shale gas crude oil supplies, which pressured crack spreads in Asia and Europe. Gasoline
crack spreads fell across the board, suffering from both strong crude prices and lower US and Singapore spot prices as the
driving season came to a close. All these factors weighed down on Singapore cracking margin which posted modest average of
$ 5.27/bbl. Middle distillates crack spreads increased across all regions in October as demand strengthened ahead of winter and
supplies tightened in line with sharply reduced refinery throughputs due to seasonal plant maintenance. Product crack spread
movements were mixed in latter half of Q3.
In last quarter, Asian refiners benefitted from improving cracks at the light end of the barrel as increased petrochemical demand
and refinery outages supported naphtha and gasoline prices. An increase in imports from India, where the refineries underwent
maintenance, helped to push up prices, which in turn drew in supplies from Europe, the Middle East and the US. Accordingly,
naphtha cracks strengthened in these markets over the quarter and ended with average of $ -1.46/bbl while occasionally going
into positive territory. Gasoline and Gasoil also registered their strongest number in this quarter.
41

Singapore GRM was under pressure during 2013-14 and declined to USD 5.76 /bbl for the year compared USD 7.74/bbl for
2012-13. Mumbai Refinery GRM has improved to US$ 5.38 /bbl in 2013-14 from US$ 2.08 /bbl in 2012-13 due to better operational
performance. Visakh Refinery GRM has been lower at US$ 1.50 /bbl in 2013-14 compared to US$ 2.08 /bbl in 2012-13 mainly due
to unplanned shutdowns during 2013-14.
Crude Oil Imports
HPCL imported 12.03 of crude oil as compared to 12.02 MMT in 2012-13. The average cost of crude oil imported in 2013-14 was
at US$ 107 per barrel as compared to US$ 110 per barrel in 2012-13 primarily on account of lower international crude prices.
The average exchange rate was INR 60.75/ $ as compared to INR 54.66/ $ in 2012-13.
HPCL uplifted 3.77 MMT of indigenous low sulphur crude oil (Mumbai High, Ravva and Krishna-Godavari Basin). The price of
Ravva is linked to regional markers like Tapis and Minas crude which are disconnected from comparable markers on account of
their declining production. This has resulted in Ravva crude price being higher than equivalent imported crude and has impacted
HPCLs margin adversely. HPCL has taken up with MOP&NG on both pricing and allocation of Ravva crude. With the support of
MoP&NG, the Ravva allocation has been addressed in the current year. The balance crude requirement was mainly met through
term imports and spot purchases. Total high sulphur crude oil procurement of 9.16 MMT was done through term contracts
from the Gulf region. Main suppliers included Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Iraq and Kuwait. Total low sulphur crude oil
procurement of 2.87 MMT was sourced through term and spot purchases.
Due to prevalent economic sanctions by the US and the European Union on Iran, it has become progressively difficult to lift
Iranian crude oils since they specifically prohibit provision of insurance cover to Iranian crude oil shipments for both vessel as
well as cargo. Even refinery asset insurance under mega insurance corporate policy has prohibited to process Iranian Crude oil.
During the year, 12.03 MMT of crude oil was imported through ocean transportation from Arabian Gulf, West Africa and Far East.
All the term crude was transported by Shipping Corporation of India (SCI) under Contact of Affreightment (COA) with HPCL. For
spot purchases of crude, vessels were chartered directly by HPCL at competitive freight / charter hire through global enquiries.
Except a low spike in July - August 2013 and a big surge in Dec 2013 - January 2014, shipping freight markets continued to be
low during the year.
To reduce overall crude procurement costs, HPCL continued chartering of Very Large Crude Carriers (VLCCs) for Low sulphur
spot crude cargoes which discharged crude to Visakh Refinery through Single Buoy Mooring (SBM). Crude transportation through
VLCCs is currently done with partial cargo loading due to tankage limitations at Visakh refinery. The expected commissioning
of Indian Strategic Petroleum Reserves Limited (ISPRL) with additional storage capacity would enable HPCL to further optimize
crude transportation by VLCCs and obtain significant freight benefits.
Physical Performance & Initiatives
During the year 2013-14, HPCLs refineries have maximized crude processing which enabled in achieving a combined refining
throughput of 15.51 MMT with a capacity utilization of 105%, in spite of unplanned shutdowns at Visakh refinery.
HPCL Refineries have made remarkable efforts for improvement in the yield of value added products. Mumbai Refinery has
augmented Propane De-Asphalting (PDA) unit capacity by 40% which will result in production of high value added product Bright
Stocks. Visakh Refinery has also taken the initiative of commissioning chiller package in Fluidized Catalyst Cracking (FCC) unit
and has also started adding bottom cracking additive to the catalyst used in FCC for maximizing LPG yields and reduction of
heavy ends production. Propylene Recovery Unit (PRU) capacity has also been augmented to enhance the existing production
of value added products.
Environmental consciousness has always been foremost for the corporation. Accordingly initiatives to reduce Suspended
Particulate Matter (SPM) and Sulphur emissions were undertaken by refineries through installation of Flue Gas Desulphurization
(FGD) facility for treating FCC off-gases. This has enabled both the refineries to have flexibility to enhance High Sulphur crude
processing as well. Additionally, refineries have been contributing in conservation of water resource to the community by reuse/
recycle operations; Mumbai refinery has conserved 565 thousand kilo liter (TKL) in 2013-14 with state of the art Integrated
Effluent Treatment Plant (IETP) facilities. Visakh refinery has sea water treating facilities to meet part of its utility requirement with
a treated water output of about 605 TKL in the year thereby conserving equal amounts of natural resource.
42

To produce BS-IV specifications Diesel, HPCL has set up Diesel Hydro Treater(DHT) Units with associated facilities at both
Mumbai and Visakh Refineries. Mumbai Refinery has commissioned the facility during 2013-14. Visakh Refinery has accomplished
mechanical completion of the unit while the pre-commissioning/Commissioning activities are in progress.
To improve the refinery operations, both Mumbai and Visakh Refineries have undertaken performance bench marking study
by M/s Solomon Associates (SA) along with other refineries. The exhaustive study made by them has brought out gaps in
critical Key Performance Areas (KPAs). In order to address these gaps several short term measures for improvement have been
identified and are being implemented. Similarly major initiatives like heat integration with capacity expansion along with residue
up gradation are proposed to be taken up as a long term measures.
The above initiatives have resulted in Mumbai refinery recording the best ever Specific Energy Consumption of 75.4 MBTU/BBL/
NRGF (Million British thermal units/Barrel/Nelsons refining gross factor) against MoU Excellent target of 87.0. Similarly, Visakh
refinery has achieved the best ever Specific Energy Consumption of 83.9 MBTU/BBL/NRGF against MoU Excellent target of 87.0.
The energy conservation measures undertaken by both refineries during the year 2013-14 have resulted in a savings of 25,535
SRFT/year (Standard Refinery Fuel Tonnage per year).
During the year, Mumbai refinery has recorded the best ever production of High Speed Diesel (HSD, 2166 TMT), Rubber
Processing Oil (RPO, 146 TMT) and Lube oil Base Stock (LOBS, 386 TMT) through effective utilization of assets. By blending
reformate sourced from domestic imports, Visakh Refinery was able to enhance production of Motor Spirit (MS), and has
recorded the best ever MS ( BS III grade) production of 1100 TMT and LPG production of 423 TMT during 2013-14.
Visakh Refinery suffered a setback due to unplanned shutdowns at one of its crude distillation units and an incident at cooling
tower complex. This has affected refinery throughput and hence production of petroleum products. All out efforts were done to
restore normalcy and bring back the refinery to regular operations by December 2013 and the refinery was operating at full crude
processing capacity by 4th quarter of 2013-14
Enhancement of refining capacity
As a part of the strategic objective HPCL plans to enhance the refining capacity by setting up a green-field refinery at Pachpadra,
Barmer district, Rajasthan in addition to undertaking brown field expansion of its existing Mumbai and Visakh Refineries.
This green field refinery at Rajasthan will be wellhead refinery and an integrated petrochemical complex with a refining capacity
of 9 million metric tonnes per annum(MMTPA) and capability to process indigenous Mangala crude oil being produced from local
Cairn Oil fields with a capital outlay of about ` 37,000 crore. A joint venture agreement with Rajasthan Government has been
signed to incorporate a new company HPCL- Rajasthan Refinery limited (HRRL) Participation of Govt. of Rajasthan is first of its
kind partnership with state government as an equity stake holder in the Refining Sector. Pre-project activities such as obtaining
environmental clearance, soil investigation at site and Licensor selection etc. have commenced.
Visakh refinery modernization project is being taken up to augment existing refinery capacity from 8.3 MMTPA to 15 MMTPA along
with the state of the art secondary processing and Bottoms upgradation units. Mumbai refinery expansion plan is envisaged to
augment existing refining capacity from 6.5 MMTPA to 9.5 MMTPA. Pre Project activities for both the refineries expansion are
underway.
HPCL as Anchor tenant had planned a grass root 15 MMTPA Petrochemical cum petroleum Integrated Refinery in the
Visakhapatnam Petroleum Chemicals and Petrochemicals Investment region (PCPIR). HPCL has plans for implementation of
this project in collaboration with National and International Oil / Petrochemical companies after conducting the feasibility study
and financial assessment.
MARKETING
HPCL continued to record robust physical sales growth during the financial year by implementing effective marketing strategies
under challenging business conditions and environment. The Corporation has registered a total Products sale (including exports)
of 30.96 MMT during FY 2013-14 vis--vis sales of 30.32 MMT during the preceding year. It has been a significant year for the
Corporation, with a growth of 4.1% in Market sales (Domestic market) over the sales volume of previous year, compared to 0.6%
growth for the public sector oil companies. This performance has enabled the Corporation to improve its market share by 0.71%
amongst Public Sector Oil companies to 20.90% during the current year 2013-14 against 20.19% in the previous year. Individual
Marketing SBUs performance is covered in the sections below.
43

Retail
Retail strategic business unit (SBU) continued to play a pivotal role for the company accounting for a major share of total sales
volumes. The business verticals philosophy of strategic network expansion remained a key focus area, with addition of Retail
Outlets in identified geographies. Combined with the parallel thrust on business solicitation and process improvements, the SBU
registered another stellar performance during the year. The excellent performance during the year sequentially over the decade
made it a Decade of Excellence for this SBU, which has the highest weightage in the Companies top line.
The physical volumes recorded during the year by the SBU crossed 21 MMT, which translates to significant addition of over
11 MMT to the annual volumes over the last decade i.e., more than doubling of the sales volumes in the decade. These sales
gains have come on the back of unrelenting focus on customer delight initiatives and processes, coupled with strengthening the
network capabilities, deployment of information technology across critical marketing practices and enhanced dealer connect
features who are the last link in this Business to Consumer(B2C) business. The market gains over the last 10 years consecutively
had a salutary impact on the companys Total Motor Fuel (TMF) market share, which now stands at 25.35%, which corresponds
to an increase of 0.15 % over the previous year.
With regard to individual products, the vertical has recorded Petrol (Motor Spirit) sales growth of 8.7 % in the year 2013-14 vis-vis historical, which compares favourably against PSU oil industry growth of 8.4% for the year. Similarly, Diesel (High Speed
Diesel) also registered better than PSU oil industry growth at 6.6% which is 0.7% higher than PSU oil industry growth.
The Retail network expansion continued, with the commissioning of 723 new Retail Outlets during the year, including 223 outlets
in rural areas which has been a special focus area for the company considering the business volumes likely to be generated with
the countrys GDP growth getting back to a strong growth path. The Corporation has come within striking distance of the 13000
mark of retail outlets with the final tally standing at 12869 retail outlets as of March 31, 2014.
DriveTrack Plus and Payback form the premiere loyalty programmes and have been the subject of focused attention by
the company. Over 3000 outlets are enrolled in the programme which constitutes about 25% of the retail network. The robust
Technology platform and applications is the key to efficient management of this very large scale programme, in which a unique
online architecture based on smartcards enables users to transact even in the remotest locations seamlessly. The technology
upgrades in the DriveTrack Plus programme helps customers to manage their working capital better and access over both
internet and mobile platforms enables their vehicles to fuel at the designated outlets in a trouble-free way. On the technology
enhancement front, the Payback programme also saw the facility of Real Time Burn across nearly 2000 active outlets along with
various redemption campaigns to delight the customers.
Retail has continued to leverage Information Technology (IT) for enhancing customer satisfaction for which a key action area is
product quality assurance. Retail Automation system was installed as a Quality Assurance (QA) tool at 160 Retail Outlets during
the year, taking the total number of automated outlets to 2100 as of March 31, 2014. Another IT based initiative was rolled out
for enhancing the up-time of the Dispensing Units installed at outlets, titled Retail Outlet Maintenance Management System.
This web based multi user application provides real time tracking and enables both management and maintenance of the units
at least cost. Another industry first initiative for enhancing marketing efficiencies by leveraging Technology was a web based
Pricing Tool Kit for calculation of Retail Selling Price (RSP) for all variants of Petrol and Diesel. This application provides real-time
information to the Retail Dealers and field officers on price changes through SMS alerts and emails. Concurrently, all retail outlets
have been mapped into Google Map, through which any customer can ascertain the price of Petrol and Diesel at each retail
outlet enroute while travelling and stop to fuel at the most suitable outlet.
Allied business streams remained a focus area, in which mutually beneficial partnerships with banks is one part. A record 500
ATMs have been commissioned at Retail Outlets taking the total tally to 1550 which in addition to enhancing the customer
experience at retail outlets also contribute significantly to the non-fuel revenues.
To be competitive in the challenging business environment, Retail is focussed on strategies for customer gains and retention.
LPG
LPG Marketing in the country has seen dramatic changes over the last few years, with India having the unique distinction of the
largest number of domestic consumers supplied in cylinders vis--vis any other country. For HPCL, LPG business line accounts
44

for approximately 14% of the total sales volume, with sales for FY 2013-14 at 4205 TMT vis--vis 4020 TMT the previous year,
corresponding to a growth of 4.60 %. The business vertical has maintained a commendable performance during the year,
retaining the industry No. 2 position in total LPG Sales with a 26.73 % market share. The vertical achieved a LPG bottling of 4001
TMT during the year, which is an increase in productivity of 3% over previous year.
HPCL continues to maintain its market leadership position in the profitable and highly competitive Non-Domestic Bulk LPG
segment, with 43 % market share. Two new exclusive Non-Domestic LPG distributorships were added to the network during
the year in important markets, for future gains. Allied Retail Business stream also remained a focus area, and this stream has
contributed a significant ` 75 crore approx. profit during the year. Implementation of primary and secondary Supply distribution
model and meticulous inventory management across the chain also resulted in substantial savings of ` 124 crore approximately
during the year.
Keeping in focus deliverables listed in the corporate plan - Target Shikhar, comprehensive strategic actions were implemented
to penetrate the rural domestic LPG market. 219 new LPG distributorships were commissioned under the Rajiv Gandhi Gramin
LPG Vitaran Yojana in addition to 95 new regular domestic LPG Distributorships during FY 2013-14. The SBU also launched 5 Kg
LPG cylinders sales initiative thru Retail Outlets in selected cities for tapping the significant segment of consumers with this pack
size requirement e.g., IT professionals, BPO employees etc.
LPG SBU is acknowledged in the industry for its infrastructural strength and further steps were taken during the year for
augmenting LPG bottling capacity by 60 TMT along with increasing the bulk LPG storage capacity by 610 TMT during the year.
Some of the key projects completed during the year are Anantapur LPG Bottling Plant (AP) with a bottling capacity of 75 TMTPA,
2.7 Km long LPG Pipeline connecting ONGC Hazira to HPCL Hazira LPG Plant, Mounded Storage Vessels (MSV) at Paharpur
LPG Plant (WB) with augmentation of bottling capacity. During the year, Mechanical completion of the project for 8400 MT LPG
Mounded Storage at Mangalore LPG Import Facility (MLIF), Mangalore was also completed which makes it the largest LPG MSV
storage of HPCL. Two new marine LPG unloading arms were installed at New Mangalore Port Jetty No. 12 as part of the above
project.
As part of the Government strategy for monitoring and controlling subsidy costs and ensure availability to genuine domestic
LPG users, the vertical has taken the lead in implementing Know Your Customer (KYC) norms and deployment of Direct Benefit
Transfer for LPG consumer scheme of the government (DBTL). The SBU rolled out Project Lakshya for purifying the existing
customer database with various phases such as KYC updation, customer verification, identification and dropping of multiple
connection customers / shifting them to non-subsidised category and through de-duplication exercise jointly with other marketing
companies. In this initiative, a Super Computer was deployed for handling the data of over 150 million LPG customers along with
use of Fuzzy Logic programmes and Aadhaar based identification steps with the support of National Informatics Centre (NIC).
A Transparency Portal was also rolled out for enhanced transparency across the value chain and to enable free access to
information on availability of LPG, list of subsidy beneficiaries, details of benefits drawn etc. Unique Mobile apps deployed also
provide convenient and self-service features for the customers interactions.
A web service has been provided to LPG consumers which provides the LPG delivery pattern of the distributors, for securing
feedback to enhance distribution quality and achieve higher levels of customer delight. Another initiative during the year was the
launch of LPG portability option for the first time, a technology based facility to customers to choose the distributor of their choice
serving their locality. Intercompany portability initially commenced in 24 cities in 14 states and is now expanded to 488 more
districts in 32 states. These initiatives are aimed at enhancing LPG distributorship effectiveness for increased customer delight
by creating friendly rivalry between distributors and also with the long term aim for equipping the network to face free market
competition when such a time comes.
LPG intrinsically calls for safe handling throughout the marketing chain. Operational efficiency and Safety metrics enhancement
remained a focus area for the SBU with roll out of well-designed programmes including Project Utkarsh for workers, Project
SAKSHAM for LPG Distributors, Project Samarth for LPG Distributors deliverymen and Project Samvaad for LPG Distributors
showroom staff and Suraksha Sanchetana Abhiyan Mela (SSA) for enhancing awareness amongst the customers on safe
usage of LPG in their kitchens, which resulted in HP GAS customers receiving unique and differentiated customer experience
with safety as the centrepiece.
45

LPG SBU has maintained an enviable safety record, with a NIL accidents report involving injuries or fatalities across plants, along
with a commendable 96.9% HSE Index score during the year. The SBU also carried out International Safety Rating System (ISRS)
certification of 10 LPG plants successfully during the year, along with specialised training programmes on Risk Assessment,
Hazardous Operations (HAZOP) and Disaster Management Plan (DMP) to LPG plant officers for making the system even more
robust.
LPG SBU has also prepared exhaustive future plans for enhancement of operational effectiveness and customer delight and for
identifying new LPG market segments for continued success.
Direct Sales - Lubes
The SBU recorded excellent sales during the year, resulting from well-laid out plans implemented for the three marketing channels
of Lube CFA, Retail Network & Lube Distributor and the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) sector. India is estimated to be
the third largest lube market in the world after US and China, with share of approximately 6% of the total worlds sales. During the
year, the lube market size in India remained steady at about 2800 TMT, including Transformer and White Oils.
During the year 2013-14, HPCL has recorded value added lube sales (excluding base oil sales) of 357 TMT with a robust growth
of 19.3% over the previous year. The growth rate is well ahead of the Industry and HPCL is the second largest marketer as per
internal estimates. It is also estimated that HPCL is now Indias No. 1 marketer in institutional lube sales with the volume of 262
TMT during the year, and also in total lubes including base oils with sales of 484 TMT during the year.
The SBU continued its strong focus on expansion of the network of Lube Distributors and Lube clearing and forwarding agents
(CFAs) who cater to the Bazaar and Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) segments respectively. HPCLs strong network
of 223 Lube Distributors today reaches to more than 40,000 bazaar lube shops / retailers across the country. The SBU has also
started tapping the rural markets with current number of 11 Rural Lube Distributors for this segment. This is supplemented by
the strong presence in Genuine Oils viz., Bajaj Auto, Tata Motors, Force Motors and Gabriel which are stocked at 2,200 OEMs
service stations. In the MSME segment, the 94 strong CFA network has expanded its reach to more than 14,000 customers
across the country.
The SBU introduced new lube grades and specialty products and variants for tapping more segments in the Business to Business
(B2B) and Business to Consumer (B2C) markets, such as Transformer Oil, Gas Engine Oil for 3 Wheelers, Universal Tractor
Transmission Oil (for tractors with Wet Brake technology), etc. Introduction of new stock keeping units (SKUs) and Pack sizes
for meeting specific customers demands enabled the SBU to spread the reach of HP Lubes across segments, resulting in the
significant sales numbers as stated earlier.
The SBU retained OEM sector as its focus during the year, with consolidation of business at important OEMs including JCB India
and Bajaj Auto along with renewed partnerships with reputed OEMs like Komatsu, Force Motors, Kirloskar Pneumatics, etc. The
strategy for partnerships with major two wheeler OEMs like new tie ups with Royal Enfield and Mahindra Two Wheelers during
the year and earlier years has enabled HPCL to reach the top rung in the 4T Oils segment. A cornerstone for OEM business
development was the close interactions between HPCL Technical Services / R&D wings and the OEMs R&D for establishing
HPCL products credentials. A significant outcome of these successes is that other multinational corporations (MNCs) OEMs
have acknowledged and accepted HPCL strengths and capabilities, opening the way for more partnerships in the coming years.
Branding remains the key driver in the lube market and the SBU has adopted the strategy of hybrid branding with strong parent
and strong product brands. In addition to commercials aired in important TV channels for promoting HP Lubes, the SBU has
utilized Exhibitions, Trade Fairs, Krishi Melas and other mass contact events for increasing the brand recall amongst the target
customers.
The SBU retained its preference for Below the Line (BTL) approach for increasing its market reach, with innovative promotional
campaigns run during the year for different target groups of Distributors, Retail Outlet Dealers, Bazaar Retailers, Mechanics, OEM
Service Stations and end consumers. Contact programs content included product specifications and performance handled by
Technical Services personnel. This has resulted in the significant sales numbers recorded during the year, which is a measure of
the success of this strategy which is at variance with the commonly adopted high cost Above the Line (ATL) path.
46

The R&D wing of the SBU continued its meticulous activities during the year, with development of new products and performance
upgrades in selected grades. The group also presented well received papers at international seminars and conferences with
positive peer reviews. Collaborative ongoing projects include development of Nano technology additives for engine and gear
oils, Cerium particle based catalytic Nano particles for diesel fuels and Jatropha based bio-diesel research.
Direct Sales - Industrial & Consumer (I&C)
The year 2013-14 remained a challenging year for I&C business-line which handles institutional sales of fuels, bitumen, naphtha
and other bulk products consumed by industries, mining sector, construction, power plants, shipping, etc. Second consecutive
year of subdued GDP growth of less than 5% saw slow industrial growth limiting the growth for petroleum products to 0.6% YoY
for Public sector oil companies. The negative impact was magnified on demand for products handled by I&C due to shift of large
customers from FO/LSHS to gas and due to volume pressures on HSD owing to higher price for industrial consumers vis--vis
retail customers.
The company recorded much better performance than Industry in this competitive and price sensitive sector with de-growth
contained at 3.4% vs. Industry de-growth of 15.5%. The exceptional performance in I&C resulted in a market share gain of 1.8%,
which raised the company to No. 2 position in the Industry. The company recorded the highest growth in Industry in all major I&C
products like High Speed Diesel (HSD), Light Diesel Oil (LDO), Furnace Oil (FO), Low Sulphur Heavy Stock (LSHS) and Naphtha,
and gained market share in 12 out of 16 I&C products.
The company successfully focused on HSD sales to Marine, Steel and Railways sectors for overcoming the reduced offtake
by bulk HSD industrial customers due to dual pricing. The strategy included entering Corporate MOUs accelerated by focused
customer engagement and enhanced service quality. This strategy paid rich dividends in HSD as well as FO product-lines. The
company has also been obtaining more business from Defence and Railways, with Kerb Side Pumps awarded by Army and
Director General of Border Roads (DGBR) in Jammu, Leh&Kargil areas and commissioning of a Railway Consumer Depot at
Puri, Orissa.
The company gained during the year from the successful Naphtha supply tie-ups with major buyers Reliance Industries and
Haldia Petro-chemicals. LSHS sales was consolidated by supplementing own refinery supplies with innovative sourcing methods,
enhancing the engagement with important user GMR Power at Chennai. The focus on marine bunker market increased, with
measures such as supply logistics capabilities enhancement at key Ports and introduction of new grades.
The company recorded Bitumen sales of 1 MMT mark for the second consecutive year, by effective product planning and
placement for overcoming refinery supply deficit during unit shutdown periods, including engagement of a vessel for coastal
movement of bitumen from Visakh Refinery to Haldia and Chennai markets. The year also saw the launch of new VG 40 Bitumen
Grade for the first time in the Industry from HPCL Mumbai Refinery which is technologically superior and suitable for construction
of more durable Roads.
The I&C product-lines display commodity market patterns, and a prime strategy area for the company was optimal balancing of
market sales volume vis--vis net revenue realisation per selling unit aided by measures to increase customer base and spread
thereby de-risking the business. Another I&C role as part of an integrated oil company is to develop the domestic market for I&C
products which is key to Refineries production maximisation, as build-up of stocks beyond holding capacity compel refineries to
cut production. The challenge therefore to I&C is dynamically balance various aspects in the business-line, and tap the segments
of the market which yield the best returns at the given point.
The I&C business-line has chalked out detailed plans for minimizing the adverse impact of drop in demand of liquid fuels by
industries shifting to Regasified Liquefied Natural Gas (RLNG)/Natural Gas (NG) and other cheaper fuels, volatility in international
prices of I&C products, etc. so as to improve the business volume and market share in the coming period.
Aviation
HPCL adopted a calibrated marketing strategy in the Aviation business-line during the year, which witnessed the domestic
airlines coming under stress and saw a growth of 4.4 % during the year. The aviation sector in India has remained under pressure
over the past many years, with some of them ceasing operations. It is expected that the countrys economic recovery projected
for 2014-15 is likely to have positive impact on the aviation sector through better load factors, improved fleet utilisation etc..
47

During the year, the company recorded aviation fuel sales of 445 TMT, through a planned mix of domestic and international
airline customers.
The dynamics of aviation fuel marketing is also evolving with the authorities planning more Public Private Partnerships (PPP)
for operation, management and development of Indian airports. Staying ahead, the company has signed Share purchase and
Shareholders agreement with other partners for formation of Joint Venture Company in Mumbai for developing and managing
a new integrated fuel farm at Mumbai Airport. These strategies along with tapping new airlines which are at take off stage are
expected to grow the aviation fuels business of the company in the coming period.
Natural gas
During 2013-14, HPCL made contribution of ` 4.95 crore in GSPL India Gasnet Limited (GIGL) and GSPL India Transco Limited
(GITL)towards equity in the joint ventures for laying, building and operating three gas pipelines (a) Mehsana - Bathinda Pipeline;
(b) Bathinda-Srinagar Pipeline; and (c) Mallavaram Bhilwara Pipeline.
HPCL is operating a Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) network at Ahmedabad through one mother station and 20 daughter
stations for general public for their vehicles. During 2013-14, the sale of CNG through CNG Stations in Ahmedabad is 1.946 TMT.
To give impetus and build in the area of Natural Gas, HPCL has formed a joint venture(JV) company- HPCL Shapoorji Energy
Limited (HSEL), which was incorporated on October 15, 2013 as a 50:50 equity partnership with M/s SP Ports Private Limited
(SPPPL) [a wholly owned subsidiary of Shapoorji Pallonji Infrastructure Capital Company Ltd. (SPICCL)] to build and operate
5 MMTPA LNG regasification terminal at Chhara Port in Gujarat.
Operations & Distribution
The backbone for petroleum marketing is robust supply logistics which is handled by the Operations and Distribution vertical in
the company. HPCL has achieved a record market thruput of 43.281 MMT in the FY 2013-14 which played a key role in increasing
market share. Optimum inventory management remained a focus area handled by accurate and effective Product positioning
and delivery logistics, resulting in enhanced customer satisfaction levels in both Retail and I&C businesses.
A significant point in the regard was unremitting stress on Safety in operations across marketing locations, which resulted in an
enviable record of Zero Lost Time Accidents (LTA). This received acknowledgement with the company being awarded Best
Overall Safety Performance Award by Oil Industry Safety Directorate (OISD), for the 4th consecutive year in succession. Some
of the initiatives taken for enhancing operational safety were rolling out of IT enabled Work permit System, online Management
of Change processes. MB Lal Committee recommendations implementation remained another focus area, which enhanced the
systemic and process strength in the company.
The company also successfully entered into strategic tie-ups during FY 13-14, resulting in sourcing of majority of the requirement
from domestic sources and with negligible imports. The production of 5.6 MMT of MS/HSD/SKO/ATF from Bathinda JV refinery
was evacuated successfully during the year, which played a major role in increasing the companys Market Share in North India
in addition to enabling uninterrupted functioning of the HMEL Bathinda Refinery.
The company has carried out detailed planning for meeting market future demand along with time bound infrastructure
development. FY 2013-14 witnessed successful commissioning of technologically state-of-art supply locations at Visakhapatnam
and Ennore (Chennai), which are equipped with latest instrumentation and product handling equipment which meet the stringent
safety norms recommended by the MB Lal Committee. In addition to the above locations, significant capacity augmentation
was carried out at other locations resulting in 115 Thousand Kilo Litres(TKL) capacity additional tankages, with commensurate
new Road & Rail loading facilities during the year. New Projects are also underway with latest designs on safety & automation at
several locations, viz. Bihta (Patna), Tikrikalan (Delhi), New Kadapa (AP) and Bokaro which will enhance companys distribution
capability significantly.
Technology is a significant force multiplier lever for Operational Excellence and the company has incorporated technology aided
processes over the past. During the year 2013-14, Optimised Logistics Assistant and Order & Fleet Scheduling package was
rolled out across all supply locations, for maximising utilisation of the storage and loading facilities as well as the large delivery
fleet. Operational cost management tool & Auto Budgeting Module was rolled out which is expected to yield substantial savings
in the coming years.

users for informed decision making.
In house e-procurement system has been rolled out across the Corporation and is being used by various purchasing
authorities in all SBUs and functions. The targets of e-procurement as laid down by Central Vigilance Commission
(CVC) and MoP&NG have been achieved by during the year. The system has also been enhanced to handle specialized
procurement requirements of lubes SBU, for transportation tenders and to auto-upload the tender details in Govt. of
India (GoI) portal for Central Public Procurement Portal (CPPP). The use of the system ensures substantial savings in
cost of procurement in terms of tender hosting charges and procurement man hours. It also ensures Data security with
complete audit trail as well as conformance to CVC guidelines, complete integration with ERP system and results into
improved cycle time from Purchase Requisition (PR) to Purchase Order (PO). HPCL is the only company among the
major PSUs to have its own e-procurement platform.
HPCL has introduced centralized payment system through work flow for recording receipts, by building a library of
the purchase orders and integrating image processing software to ERP system. This has made possible online review
and control for disbursement of payment. The system would significantly reduce the payment cycle times and would
provide for visibility of all documents related to the payments including the vendor documents in the ERP system itself.
52

To create immediate visibility of information and to inform the users on specific business triggers, alerts through email
and SMS to concerned stake holders from ERP and other systems have been developed and rolled out. A few of
the significant ones include a) To sales functionaries on credit holds, pending collections as well as new retail outlet
commissioning / LPG dealership commissioning; b) to Customers on Bitumen invoicing. The generic SMS/email alert
engine can be leveraged to send out targeted messages/alerts from various business processes/applications.
A system has been developed for digitization of dealership documents in which records of land lease agreements
and allied documents have been scanned, meta data created and the documents uploaded. Central repository of the
scanned documents facilitates the view of documents/details and ensures better control in payment of rentals/lease
amounts.
HPCL has introduced Distributor Consumer Management System (DCMS) for managing LPG distributors operations
such as enrolling new consumers, providing new connections, recording & completing refill requirements, recording
consumer termination etc. This software has been integrated with HPCLs ERP system for data exchange.
Applications have been developed for implementation of Direct Benefit Transfer for LPG consumer (DBTL) as per
MoP&NG guidelines. Various components of this included changes to ERP system for control on quota of subsidised
cylinders basis customer holding data in DCMS, multi modal seeding of Aadhaar numbers, development of full visibility
of customer data in transparency portal, development of seamless integration of DCMS, Bank interface to SBI, ERP
for subsidy transfer and generation of claims. A number of new technical features were developed by HPCL such as
digitally signed and encrypted exchange of information with SBI using Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) and web
services, seeding using Bar codes /Quick Response (QR) codes scanners/mobile handsets, etc. Process of exchange
of information in MoPNG and other stakeholders using dash boards, alerts/reports and portals were also developed
and implemented in quick time.
B2B integration with Oil Marketing Companies (OMC) was completed earlier and this has now been extended to
upstream companies. Traditionally product exchange data was settled between two Oil PSUs through manual joint
certificates. Since other companies also have their own ERP system, it has been leveraged to develop an efficient,
accurate and on-line product exchange accounting and settlement mechanism. It has also improved process efficiency.
In Aviation SBU, real time B2B interface has been developed with the operator for seamless transfer of refuelling data
for automatic processing of transactions in ERP system. All documents are on B2B platform.
HPCL has taken the lead in developing Tank Truck (TT) blacklisting portal on behalf of the industry. Interfaces were
developed to the systems of all OMCs to get the details of blacklisted TTs updated in the portal. The Portal enables TT
Blacklisting Information sharing on real time basis across the industry. It eliminates the time lag of blacklisting of vehicle
and information received by OMC.
HPCL has also taken the lead in developing Central Tank-wagon Calibration Committee(CTCC) portal on behalf of the
industry. This initiative has been taken to develop and maintain Industry CTCC Portal for All Oil Marketing Companies
for auto generation of calibration charts for Railway tank wagons. The application has enabled instant availability of
calibration certificates for new tank wagons and their auto-updation in ERP systems of all Oil Companies on real time
basis. With this portal, cycle time for generation to approval of the calibration charts has reduced drastically.
Web based application has been rolled out for new Route creation process for dealers. This has facilitated rationalisation
of trip-distances to Retail Outlets and the routes are getting created with reference to distance mapped on Google
Maps. Rationalisation of majority of retail customer routes has been completed with this application and it has accrued
substantial savings.
A customer portal is being maintained which provides complete visibility to the direct customers, dealers & distributors
on their transactions with HPCL. Similarly a portal for the transporters enables them to access information pertaining
to their transactions with HPCL. A number of work flow based applications have been implemented for employee selfservice so as to speed up the process of benefits administration. Capital budgeting process for Non-plan projects as

OUTLOOK
The economic growth is expected to improve in the year 2014-15. While structural impediments to growth are being addressed,
the impact will be gradual. Reduction in CAD and fiscal deficit has reduced the risk of stress in the Indian economy. External
demand is expected to improve as global economic prospects have brightened and are expected to improve further during
2014-15. The growth in the world economy is likely to be led by the advanced economies, especially the US. Emerging markets,
however, are facing slower medium term growth prospects. In this environment, the GDP growth in the country is expected to
be in the range of 5.4% to 5.9% during 2014-15. Downside risks emanate from scanty monsoon and its impact on agriculture
growth. CPI inflation in recent past has tended to be high due to high and volatile food prices. Any adverse outcome on monsoon
will, therefore, increase inflationary pressures and reduce monetary policy options to revive growth.
Slower growth prospects in emerging markets and Europe could also drag recovery by impacting exports. Oil prices have
averaged more than US$ 100 per barrel for last three years. Rising US oil supply and slowing emerging market growth suggest
slightly declining to flat oil prices this year. However, loss of supply due to turmoil in the Middle East and North Africa could lead
61

to higher and volatile oil prices. Any sharper than expected tapering by the US Fed could impact the markets fuelling the prices
further via exchange rate pass through. On the upside, revival of confidence, reforms to kick-start large projects and stronger
than expected recovery in advance economies will push the growth to higher end of the expected growth rate.
Demand for petroleum products should return to its trend growth rate with the recovery in the economy. Higher demand along
with higher oil prices could, however, create pressure on CAD. However, incremental increases in diesel price have reduced the
under-recoveries and continued increases would lead to further reductions in under-recoveries incurred by oil companies.
JOINT VENTURES & SUBSIDIARIES
The Joint Venture companies and subsidiaries of HPCL have performed well during the year 2013-14.
z

Operating Leases - Assets taken on lease primarily consist of leased land taken for the purpose of setting up retail outlets,
depot operations and properties for use by the Corporation. These lease arrangements are normally renewed on expiry
of the term. Amount of lease rental expenses recognized in the Statement of Profit & Loss is given under Note 23 - Other
expenses.
Considering the Government policies and modalities of compensating the oil marketing companies towards underrecoveries, future cash flows have been worked out based on the desired margins for deciding on impairment of related
Cash Generating Units. Since there is no indication of impairment of assets as at Balance Sheet date as per the assessment
carried out, no impairment has been considered. In view of assumptions being technical, peculiar to the industry and
Government policy, the auditors have relied on the same.
46.
During the year 2013-14, an amount of ` 12.82 Crores (2012-13: ` 8.11 Crores) has been charged to revenue towards
Enabling Assets on which the Corporation does not have a control.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March, 2014
1.
BASIS OF PREPARATION
1.1
The Consolidated Financial Statements (CFS) relates to parent company, Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited
(HPCL), its subsidiary companies and its interest in Joint Ventures, in the form of jointly controlled entities (collectively
referred to as the Group).
The financial statements are prepared under historical cost convention in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (GAAP), Accounting Standards referred to in the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006 issued by
the Central Government and the relevant provisions of the Companies Act, 1956 read with the General circular 15/2013
dated 13th September 2013 of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs in respect of the Companies Act, 2013. All income and
expenditure having material bearing are recognised on accrual basis, except where otherwise stated. Necessary estimates
and assumptions of income and expenditure are made during the reporting period and difference between the actual and
the estimates are recognised in the period in which the results materialise.
In particular these CFS are prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard on Consolidated Financial Statements
(AS-21), and Financial Reporting of Interests in Joint Ventures (AS-27) notified under Companies (Accounting Standards)
Rules, 2006.
1.2
Principles of Consolidation
The CFS are prepared, as far as possible, using uniform significant accounting policies for the like transactions and other
events in similar circumstances and are presented to the extent possible, in the same manner as HPCLs separate financial
statements.
The Financial Statements of HPCL and its subsidiaries have been consolidated on a line-by-line basis by adding together
the book values of like items of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, the intra group balance and intra group transactions
and unrealised profits or losses resulting from intra group transactions are fully eliminated. The share of Minority Interest in
the Subsidiaries has been disclosed separately in CFS.
The financial statements of Joint Ventures have been consolidated by applying proportionate consolidation method on a

43. In respect of certain Subsidiaries and Joint Venture Companies, the following notes to accounts are disclosed.
(figures for joint ventures are reported at total amounts and not on proportionate basis)
(a) HPCL-Mittal Energy Ltd. (HMEL)
(i)
As per the provisions of the Deed of Assurance signed by the Company with the Government of Punjab read together
with the notification dated 22 November 2011 under Punjab General SalesTax (Deferment & Exemption) Rules, 1991,
the Company is allowed to defer the payment of its Central Sales Tax (CST) liability for a period of 15 years from the date
of production and the same is repayable in 30 half yearly instalments from the 16th year onwards without any interest.
Punjab VAT Act, 2005 vide notification no. S.O. 21/P.O.5/2005/5, 92/2005 dated 6 April 2005, further prescribes conditions
for availing deferment and exemption which inter-alia provides that any unit availing benefit of deferment, can opt for
payment of amount of deferred CST liability on a net present value basis computed at an interest of 11% p.a., before the date
of filing of return. In view of the said provisions, the Company has decided to settle the entire CST liability as at 31 March 2014,
by 30 June 2014. Accordingly, the amount of CST liability as at 31 March 2014, as recorded in these consolidated financial
statements, represents the estimated amount required on 30 June 2014 to settle the same. Consequentially, an amount of
` 806.2 Crores has been credited to the Statement of Profit and Loss, being the difference between the gross amount
of CST liability as at the year end and the estimated amount required for its settlement on 30 June 2014.
(ii) HPCL-Mittal Energy Limited (HMEL) has entered into a fifteen year product off take agreement, starting from November
2012, with Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) according to which HPCL is required to purchase most
of the goods produced by the Company. In view of the said contract, the management believes, to the extent HPCL is
required to purchase goods from the HMEL, there exists virtual certainty that it will generate sufficient taxable profits to
set-off the unabsorbed depreciation and carry forward losses and other timing differences and has hence recognised
deferred tax assets on the same. Additionally, there are some more timing differences on account of carry forward
losses on which HMEL would have had deferred tax assets of ` 29.4 Crores (Previous year ` 264.9 Crores) which have

(iii) HPCL-Mittal Pipelines Limited (HMPL) has set up a Single Point Mooring (SPM) and a crude receipt and storage facility
at Mundra port, Gujarat, besides a 1,017 kilometers cross country pipeline for transportation of crude oil from Mundra to
Bathinda, Punjab. HMPL believes that with respect to the operations carried out at Mundra, a Special Economic Zone,
it shall be eligible for a tax holiday for a period of ten consecutive years in a block of fifteen years commencing from
139
the financial year 2011-12, in accordance with the provisions of section 80-lA (2) of the Income Tax Act, 1961. HMPL
intends to claim the said tax holiday benefit from financial year beginning on 1st April 2016 onwards. Accordingly,
HMPL based on its current business plans, has estimated the timing differences, relating to the port business, which are
likely to reverse during the tax holiday period and has not created any deferred tax assets or liabilities on such timing
differences.
